GREENBELT, Md. - Metro has announced the installation of additional security cameras at all of its stations. But residents living near the Greenbelt station say it's not enough to deal with their crime problem, especially for those entering the station using the 53rd Street entrance.

 

Last year, a teenage girl was raped outside the station, prompting one resident to collect more than 300 signatures petitioning for increased surveillance.
